TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Chapter 18. Supraglottic Airway Devices A1 - Reichman, Eric F. PY - 2013 T2 - Emergency Medicine Procedures, 2e AB - Airway management remains one of the cornerstones of the clinical practice of Emergency Medicine in both the Emergency Department and the prehospital environment. The majority of advanced airway placements in the prehospital environment occur in the cardiac arrest or trauma patient. Advances in the science of performing better cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) aim to limit the “no-flow-time” associated with resuscitation. Most supraglottic airway devices aim for an insertion time under 30 seconds. Some Emergency Medical Service (EMS) systems have emphasized the use of an alternative airway device over endotracheal intubation.1,2 SN - PB - The McGraw-Hill Companies CY - New York, NY Y2 - 2024/04/24 UR - accessemergencymedicine.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=57701896 ER -
